Getting the diagnostic clue, role of MRI in the diagnosis of type 1 Glutaric aciduria in resource-limited settings.

Glutaric aciduria type 1 is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase, which is the key mitochondrial enzyme involved in the final degradation of lysine, L-hydroxylysine, and L-tryptophan. It is an inherited organic acidemia characterized by macrocephaly and dystonia, which results in high morbidity and mortality. In resource-limited countries like Nepal, where enzyme assays are not available, MRI has a great role to play in supporting diagnosis in such situations.

Surgical treatment of spondylodiscitis.

Introduction: Spinal infection poses a demanding diagnostic and treatment problem for which a multidisciplinary approach with spine surgeons, radiologists, and infectious disease specialists is required. Infections are usually caused by bacterial microorganisms, although fungal infections can also occur. Most patients with spinal infections diagnosed in the early stages can be successfully managed conservatively with antibiotics, bed rest, and spinal braces.

Not every twist is ovarian torsion: a case report of isolated torsion of the fallopian tube in a child.

Unlabelled: Isolated fallopian tube torsion is a rare condition presenting with abdomen pain. The diagnosis is challenging because the clinical findings mimic several other conditions. In this article, we present a case of an adolescent girl who was diagnosed with the condition during laparoscopy.

Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM): A case report and review of the literature.

Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) is a rare congenital dysplastic malformation characterized by failure of bronchial development and localized glandular overgrowth. Previously known as Congenital Cystic Adenoid Malformation (CCAM), CPAM is classified into 5 types, from type 0 to type IV, depending upon the origin of pulmonary areas of the lung, cyst size, and cyst appearance. CPAM is a rare congenital anomaly typically diagnosed prenatally in ultrasound.

Susceptibility - weighted imaging: A valuable diagnostic tool for early detection of high-altitude cerebral edema: A case report.
